Publication number: 20240104656Abstract: Methods and systems to prevent adverse exchange limit effects are disclosed. An example method of message management includes tracking, at a gateway, a transaction count of trade messages communicated to an exchange via an exchange link. The example method includes defining a first transaction limit based on the transaction count, and calculating a second transaction limit as a function of the first transaction limit, wherein the second transaction limit is to correspond to a reserve capacity associated with the exchange link. The example method includes assigning a message priority to each of a plurality of trade messages to communicate to the exchange. The example method includes communicating trade messages of the plurality of trade messages having a first message priority to the exchange when the transaction count is greater than the second transaction limit, and delaying or rejecting trade messages of the plurality of trade messages having a second message priority.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 5, 2023Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventors: Thomas Jeffrey Weiss, Michael Unetich

Publication number: 20180321810Abstract: Systems and methods to obfuscate market data on a trading device are disclosed. An example method includes receiving market data related to a tradeable object at a first computing device, generating, by the first computing device, a trading interface to present the market data to a trader and reconfiguring the trading interface from a first mode to a second mode in response to a privacy command supplied by the trader via the first computing device. The first computing device is to obfuscate the market data presented by the trading interface when in the second mode. The example method includes receiving, by a second computing device, the obfuscated market data in response to the privacy command and generating, by the second computing device, a private interface to present the obfuscated market data to the trader in response to the privacy command.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 26, 2018Publication date: November 8, 2018Inventors: Thomas Jeffrey WEISS, Patrick Joseph ROONEY, William Tigard BAKER
